Believe it or not, our staff at Pier 33 stays very busy.

This year we will be closed beginning December 23 and reopening January 4, 2011. Other than those dates, Pier 33 is open and ready to serve, Monday thru Saturday each week.
This is also very valuable time for providing our staff with training in all areas of our business. Sales & Service will be visiting Scout Boats, Pursuit Boats and Chaparral Boats during the month of December for important product updates and training from those boat builders. Our technicians will also be headed to school with Mercury Marine and Yamaha Outboards, plus other technical training.
